Michael Gentile wins NY Assembly seat held by Buttenschon

Michael Gentile thanked his voters who propelled him to victory in the race to succeed Marianne Buttenschon in New York's 119th Assembly District. Gentile, who ran on the Republican and Conservative party lines will replace Buttenschon, a Democrat, on Jan. 3. "I would just like to say thank you to everyone that took part in this journey and campaign," said Gentile. "I had an amazing team backing me and it feels good that this hard work paid off." The district includes about 135,000 residents in part of Oneida County. Gentile, a lifelong resident of Utica, defeated Jon Lipe, who was running on the Democratic, Working Families and Mohawk Valley 1st parties, by getting 18,474 votes − about 53% of the vote.

"Thank you to everyone I met and reconnected with at local events, at the doors, at

What’s Been Buried Beneath This New York Lake Is Finally Coming To Light

Somewhere near the bottom of a lake more than 600 feet deep, wooden boats from the canal era still rest in the dark. Nobody parked them there on purpose. The water is so cold and deep that old wood barely breaks down. Cargo boats from the 1800s have stayed surprisingly intact, and modern sonar is finally showing them clearly.

Southern Tier trails are a gem. Summit aims to take them to next level

A day-long Southern Tier Greenways Planning Summit, hosted by Parks & Trails New York, took stock of the greenway trail plans already in motion across the region and tackled what it will take to link them into a connected regional network. The event, held Nov. 5 at the Corning Museum of Glass, focused on the eight-county Southern Tier Regional Economic Development region, which includes Steuben, Schuyler, Chemung, Tompkins, Tioga, Broome, Chenango and Delaware counties. The event paired project updates from local and regional partners with hands-on working sessions on the challenges and opportunities ahead. Kamala Keeley, President of Three Rivers Development Corporation, said trails, waterways and parks aren't amenities on the side; they're part of what makes a region a place people choose to build a life. “When our employers recruit engineers, nurses, and skilled trades, candidates want to know what life looks like outside of work," Keeley said. "Every connected mile of trail strengthens our answer, and it helps us keep the talented people who are already here.” Keeley said the Southern Tier is losing population, particularly residents who are between 25 and 44 years old.
